At a time when the capital of the country has been so liberally applied, through the medium of Joint-stock Companies in promot ing objects of great public interest and national utility, it is singu lar that no such measure has yet been adopted for supplying, under more favourable circumstances than at present exist ? an article of smell general and important use as coal. The vastly increased con sumption which of late years has taken place in large towns lying out of the coal districts, and more especially in the metropolis, renders it an object of the first importance that these places should have the advantage of being steadily supplied not only with a suffi cient quantity, but that also of the best quality, and under the Most favourable circumstances. It is a well ascertained fact that many of the coal mines in Nor %AM tberland, upon which the public have been hitherto mainly de- Pend. nit, are now nearly exhausted, at least so far as regards their capability of supplying the better description of coals, and it there fore h ecomes important that consumers should not be reduced to the tu Tessity of deriving their supply from that or any other quarter 'where inferior coal is only to be had when ample resources are in e xistence for providing an efficient supply with greater advantage. In ate Southern Division of the county of Durham, in particular, extensi, re fields of coal of the very best description are found to exist, which as yet have been but partially worked; but it has now been det ?mined to conduct several of these upon a system of more extended operation, and this determination is likely to be much aided by the recently established and newly projected lines of Rail way which will facilitate the communication between these collieries and the present shipping ports on the Tees, as well as with the im- Portant port of Hartlepool. In order to secure the full effects of these advantages, and under „ cony iction that they will be best secured by a combination of energy a lad the employment of capital on an extended scale, it has been del. ermined to establish " The Durham County Coal Corn- Pen% That s meal of the collieries now in the hands of private indivi duals are realizing very large annual profits on the invested capital is beyon, 1 question, and when the immensely increased and increas ing cons, imption of coal not only in London but in the various other Parts of I his country which are dependent for their supply upon the collieries in the North, and also the growing demand in Continen tal ports, are considered, there appears no reason to doubt that these libel .a.l profits will continue to be maintained. A soffi t , lent number 9f Shares having already been subscribed tr. The Prow '.sional Committee of the Company have purchased seve ral valuabl e and extensive Collieries, which are now in successful operation, and the produce of which maintain a first-rate character In the Low lon Market. They have also purchased two other Col lieries now in progress of completion, which, in the course of a f eu' months! will be capable of producing for shipment, a large quantity oft die best Wall's End Coals. Th e Dire ctors have concluded all the necessary arrangements for the fora ration of the Company, and for actively working the Collieries. For the pi •esent it is the intention of the Directors to confine t he operation: t of the Company to the county of 'Durham, as con taining the n test valuable description of Coal, and the vending of Nthich will pro duce the greatest return of profit to the Shareholders. The property will be held by Trustees for the Company, and the terms and management regulated by the deed of settlement, which Rill contain all the requisite provisions for the security of the ^Joareholders. t The Collieries will be under the superintendence of a Manag er, ngitkeer, and Viewer, all of high character and expe ri e n ce. The first instalment of Si. per Share is payable immediately on allot e,n,t. The remaining payments will not be calle d for earlier than tene intery sls of three months, and each payment will not exceed per Shan!. t or 'kPPlicatio ns for the remainino• shares to be made to the Solici -32' of the Company, or to the S'ecretary, at the Company's Office, aro Great Winchester-street, of whom prospectuses may be had , further particulars obtained.

The Lady Dundas, Gregory, from Riga to Dundee, has arrived at Copenhagen with damage, having been a-ground at Drag() Reef—part of the cargo discharged. . (From the New London Price Current of last night.) SUGAR.—The British plantation Sugar Market has been again scantily supplied, but owing to the stiff prices de manded by the present holders, and the large arrivals off the coast, have caused the demand from the grocers and refiners to be extremely moderate at fully the quotations which ruled last week ; about 14 vessels have arrived at the out-ports, and are waiting for a favourable wind to get up ; but still in conse quence of the great deficiency in the stock, which on Tuesday next will be nearly 8,000 hhds. and trs. under that of last year, and the great demand that will spring up shortly for Sugar, the refiners and grocers both in town and country hold ing no stock, cause holders to entertain a favourable opinion of the article ; the quantity disposed of daily this week has not averaged 200 hhds. and trs. ; the deliveries from the Docks continue to exceed those of ast year. A public sale of 130 casks new Barbadoes is advertised for Wednesday. The sales this week arc Demerara, middling and good for the scale, 635. a 665. ; browns, 61s. 6d. a 625. 6d. ; Jamaicas and Antiguas, good and fine, 675. a 68s. ; middling, 635. 6d. a 665. ; browns, 61s. 6d. a 635. ; a small parcel of fine Jamaicas sold at 70s. The quantity on show this day of West In dia Raw Sugar was under 500 hhds. and trs. ; the Market is still quiet, but the prices firm. The estimated sales for the week are 700 hhds. and trs., at the prices of this day week. The Market closed this afternoon for the Whitsun Holidays until Wednesday next. The Re fined Market for grocery and shipping goods has been very heavy during the week, and although there are few goods to be had, prices have given 6d. a Is. for the export descriptions; some small rarcels of fine Crushed sold at 435. 6d. a 445., and 84s. 6d. a 85s. long price for Lumps to pass the standard ; Dutch Crushed Sugar is held for 435. 6d. The Market keeps quiet, fine Crushed offered at 445. ; Lumps to pass the standard sold at 85s. for packing. MAURITIUS.—There was a heavy Market for Mauritius Sugar in the early part of the week, and of 3,062 bags offered at public sale only half was disposed of at a reduction on former rates of 6d., particularly for the fine qualities, low to good brown at 525. 6d. a 595. 6d, low to fine yellow 625. a 675. 6d., but since then there has been a good deal done by private con tract, mostly by the grocers, at prices a shade above those of the sale. The stock in the Docks will on Tuesday next be above 40,000 bags less than it was last year. _ _ EAST liinia.LThere have been no public sales, and the want of supplies still prevents much busiuess from being done by private contract; the prices continue gradually to improve. The only sales are some parcels of Bengal at 375. a 38s. for mid white, and 365. a 375. for damps. FOREIGN.-There having been no arrivals this week, and the few inferior descriptions of Foreign Sugars at Market being held for extreme rates, scarcely any thing has been done, but the enquiries have again been considerable, and should here be any arrivals of strong descriptions they would be eagerly purchased if offered at reasonable prices ; for some few small parcels of yellow Havannah now offering in the Market 40s. is asked for old of ord. quality, and 425. for good new ; and 435. for strong white Brazils. MOLASSES.-The prices of West India remain firm, but there is not quite so much doing ; sales of good new Demerara at 295. a 30s. mid. 28s. 6d., inferior of old quality at 265. 6d. a 275. ; good old Trinidad 28s. 6d. a 295. COFFEE.-The British Plantation Coffee Market has be come quiet, the speculative demand having completely subsided, and owing to the large parcels arrived in the river and ex pected off the coast, the grocers have purchased sparingly, and the prices since this day week have given way Is. ; the public sales have contained 152 casks 4 barrels and 168 bags ; 100 bags of the above consisted of fine fine ord. unclean De merara, and was taken in at sls. ; the remainder was Jamaica, 50 casks of which were bought in, the remainder sold slowly at the above decline, mid. at 91s. a 925., good and fine ord. 84s. a 88s. 6d., low ord. unclean 755. a 775. 6d., triage and broken 40s. a 71s. ; There has been rather more doing in the East India Market at fully the prices of last week ; some small par cels of Ceylon taken by the grocers at 525. a 535. for good quality, offers of 51s. made by the shippers have been refused ; parcels of Semarang disposed of at 48s. for exportation ; Mo cha has been in good request by the grocers and shippers at late prices ; Mysore has been sold in quantities for exporta tion at 635. a 675. The Foreign Market has become quiet, but the prices are firmly maintained ; small parcels of good ord. coloury Brazil sold by private contract at 525. 535. and 545„ and 3,992 bags at auction, nearly all damaged and musty, sold as follows-good ord. sound coloury but mixed 525. 6d. a, 535., sea damaged 475. a 515., musty even good ord. 50s. a 525. 6d. ; for a floating cargo of 3,000 bags, per the Urania, 545. has been offered and refused. There were no public or private sales this day of Coffee. COCOA.-The Markets for Plantation and Brazil Cocoa are both quiet. A government contract for 30 to 40 tons is ad vertised. RUM, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—There has been a good demand for Rum, but mostly in seeond-hand parcels, at fully the prices previously quoted ; the small quantity offering for sale, particularly of Jamaicas, still prevents considerable pur chases. Brandy has become dull, owing to the warm weather and the prospect of a heavy importation. Parcels of fine Geneva are still offering at ls. 11d. Raw Spirits firm at last week's rates, and a good deal continues to be done. A govern ment contract fur 75,000 gallons of Rum is announced, to be delivered at proof strength, half in three weeks and the re mainder in three weeks afterwards. The government con tract has had no effect upon the Market ; few Rums in first hands. RlCE.—There has been a brisk demand for East India this week, at full former rates ; 3,000 bags Bengal sold for exporta tion at 12s. 6d. to 13s. 6d. for ordinary an middling quality. In Carolina there is not so much doing, but prices remain steady. LAC DYE.—Prices are not higher this week, but the de mand continues brisk. TALLOW.—The arrival of ten vessels from St. Petersburg, which were frozen in during the winter, and having on board 4,500 casks, has much checked the demand for parcels on the spot, and prices are, not so good as they were last week ; sales of Petersburg Yellow Candle made at 435. 3d. a 435. 6d. There continues to be little disposition shown to purchase for forward delivery, but the holders still continue not to be an xious to sell at the present quotations. There was a steady demand this afternoon for Tallow on the spot at 435. 3d. a 435. 6d. For delivery nothing doing. PROVISIONS,—The great demand for Lard has again caused prices to advance ls. to 2s. ; 68s. paid for prime Waterford landed. The sales in Bacon have been extensive, and prices have risen several shillings, 525. to 545. paid for prime small Waterford landed, and 555. to 565. on board, deliverable at the end of this month, and in June. Butter in Ireland keeps up in price, Limerick being 103 s. and Waterford 955. to 100 s. There is a steady demand here at about late rates, but we arc still without arrivals of the new make, owing to the low prices of Dutch, and the plentiful supplies of the same. In the Fo reign market there has been little done, but prices have not given way. The English and Irish Ham trade has been ex tremely brisk this week. Extensive sales have been made in both English and Foreign Cheeses ; supplies small and stock on hand light. There is nothing doing in India Beef or Pork beingnn board, the season at an end. The demand from the home trade is steady. Extensive parcels of Hams and Lard have been shipped this week to the West Indies and South America. METALS.—Extensive sales of Spelter have been made, and prices have advanced to 211. ; Banca Tin has been sold at 1155., straights at 112 s. 6d., and English has advanced ss. per cwt. In English Copper there has been a great advance in the prices. Su-K.—The arrivals of East India have been large this week. the sales have been again moderate, but the prices have under • gone no change. NITRATE OF SODA.—Tile holders are firm in asking 20s. 6( a 215., but there has been little demand. TEA.—The sales since the first day hac;e proceeded vv considerable briskness, all low descriptions selling at an ad vance of I sd. per lb., the fine qualities at fully the prices of the first day ; th e fi ne C ongous b y the Alexander Bari n g , taken in at the early part of the sale have been since so ld at the buying prices ; up to last evening about seven-eights of the sale been disposed of. The question as regards the time when the 2s. Id. per lb. duty on Bohea Tea is to comp into operation, is still unsettled, but there is everyFrospect that the government PRICE OF SUGAR. The Average Price of Brown or Muscovado Sugar, computed from the Returns made in the week ending the 17th day 01 May, 16:16, is 40s. fld per Hundred Weight, exclusive of the Duties of Customs paid or payable thereon on the Importation thereof into Great Britain SPlCES.—Pimento this week has been quiet, prices keep steady. Pepper is again held for advanced rat, which has much checked the demand. Cinnamon is inrair request, large arrivals expected shortly. Export Nutmegs are scarce and much wanted at ss. Id., but the home consuming kinds are dull of sale. All other sorts of Spices are quiet, but prices are not lower. 500 bales and chests Cinnamon are advertised for auction on the 20th June. Cassia Lignea is held firmly by the late speculators at 665. to 685., and the importation will it is expected be much less this year than last. FRUIT.—The transactions have been very limited ; in prices no change. WooL.—The demand for Foreign has been confined to same parcels of low qualities at former rates. Three vessels have arrived off our Coast from Sydney having on board 1,000 bales of the new clip, and which are anxiously looked for by the manufacturers to be brought to public sale, the trade being much in want of those descriptions, the import from our Colonies will this year be greater than that of last. English Wools are in good demand, the clipping is proceeding with much rapidity, but will not prove equal to that of last season. MAIIOGAN Y.—The Mahogany Market is very brisk ; at auction 243 logs Honduras sold readily at an advance on pre vious rates of id. a id. ' and averaged 11/41. per foot. Oms.—The market for Fish Oils is generally dull, except for Sperm which is on the advance, and in brisk request. Linseed Oil is heavy, and ls. a Is. 6d. lower; some sales made as low as 41s. Rape is 6d. cheaper. The inferior quali ties of Olive are easier ; the demand very moderate. COTTON.—The arrivals of East India have been heavy this week, exceeding 9,000 bales ; the Market is still in a heavy state, and no accurate prices can be named. At Liverpool prices keep up, but there is, little demand. This afternoon the Market continued in a dull state, but no general reduction can be quoted. The private sales for the week are as under, which have gone off at rather easier prices :-150 Surat, or dinary to good fair at 6d. a 84d. ; 20 Madras, good fair, Bd. SALTPETRE.—The market for Rough Saltpetre continues extremely brisk ; large quantities have been disposed of by private contract, partly on speculation, and the remainder for shipments to the Baltic; Calcutta 30s. a 31s. Gd. and 325. for 2to 5 per cent. refraction, and ord. Madras, 28s. The public sale of last Friday, which was only partly sold, has been nearly all disposed of this week, at 325. for 4 to 51 per cent. refraction. The arrivals have been heavy, amounting to 10,000 bags since last Friday. English Refined has advanced to 345. 6d. a 355., and the demand has been good. We have stated sales of Rough at 323., but this afternoon good quality is offered at SOs. 6d. a 31s. Refined may be had at 345., and little doing. HOPS.—The fine weather has caused the Hop trade to be dull, but the supply being short, the prices continue steady. TOB Icco.—the limited sales of Tobacco are confined to the home dealers. There are some small export orders in the market to be executed, but the prices have a tendency down ward than otherwise. No further purchases have been made for the Sardinian market by the contractors. TURPENTINE.—Spirits h'ave been taken sparingly at our re daced quotations, Rough has given way to 17s. Gd. per cwt.

ALLSEND.—Wallsend, so called, as being the spot where the celebrated wall of Severus terminated on the northern bank of the Tyne, a few miles below Newcastl e, has, in modern times, b een chiefly known as the site of a colliery yielding the most valuable description of coal. so im p ortant, indeed, is th e appe ll at i on i n the market, that although' the high main seam, which afforded the original coal, has long been worked out, the designation has not only continued to be applied to some one or other sort, as the best, but to several sorts which the dealers wish to recommend. —history of 1 Fossil Fuel. EPSOM RACES—CoyezU.DED. The " Oaks Day" although pleasant-enough per se, was, compared with Thursday, a dull affair. There was no hurry ing along the road as if life was at stake—the - dashinglouls dwindled into humble p a i rs —h orses and riders looked iif the Derby had taken all " the shine" out of them—and the majo rity of these who bent their way to the Downs bore a ,gravity of countenance which would have been more becoming a fune ral procession. It seemed as if the Tract Society had la boured successfully in its vocation, for a more devout set of holiday-makers we have never seen. The Stand was fash ionably attended, but lacked much of the beauty and rank col lected within its walls on the Derby day. The ring too was smaller, and less noisy, defeat having silenced many, an d t h e dread of a " bad settling" given a serious turn even to the victors. His Royal highness the Prince of Orange and his sons again honoured the course with their presence, accompa nied by Sir H. Seymour. Their Royal Highnesses entered freely into the spirit of the scene, visited the Grand Stand, and expressed themselves highly gratified with the day's sport. The following were the results of the day's racing : Second Year of a Renewal of the Oaks Stakes of 50 sovs. each, h. ft., for three yrs old fillies, Bst. 41b. Mile and a half. The second to receive 100 sovs. out of the Stakes ; and the winner to pay 100 sovs. towards the expenses of the Police. 98 Subs. Mr. J. Scott's b. f.

Inferior as it may be to the Derby in general attractions, the Oaks has seldom been known to fall short of it in one important feature, viz., false starts. Nearly a dozen took place. Fair Jane, determined to rival the Athe ,uian in a bad pre-eminence, resolutely withholding her assent to most of them. What with these and a want of punctuality the race was not decided until within ten or twelve minutes of four o'clock, at least an hour and a half later than it ought to have been. When the patience of the spectators was com pletely worn out the last or effective start was made, Toga taking the lead at a steady pace, Cyprian lying next her, with Promise, Destiny, Marmalade and Fair Jane laid up, and the others in a rue;; at their heels,, the. whole lot being as closely packed as horses could be. In this order they went up the hill, at the top of which Minna died away, Shortwaist filly dropping off before they reached the turn, and Vesper as soon as they crossed the roads. Mega maintained her position till about a distance and a half from home, when the pace became so severe that she was fain to fall into the body of horses be hind. The race now appeared to rest between Cyprian, Fair Jane, Destiny, Promise, and Marmalade, neither of them as yet having evinced any decided symptoms of defeat. Cyprian took up the position vacated by Toga, the others running with her to the Grand Stand, where Destiny challenged, and the two, going away from the rest, made a very beautiful finish, Scott, by dint of punishment, landing his mare first by half a length. Marmalade and Promise ran in two or three lengths astern of them, the Newmarket mare having a trifle the best of it ; next to these were Toga and Fair Jane, then a lot of three or four, and, lastly, Vesper, Shortwaist, and Minna, eight of the twelve that started, making as pretty a tail as could have been expected had the pace been better, for it was much slower than the Derby.

Sly 1 Of the races generally speaking we may say confidently that they have never been surpassed in the number of the visitors. The receipts at the Grand Stand were considerably larger than last year, and the sale of lists exceeded any other meeting by nearly five hundred. The arrangements were on the whole excellent, the only fault being in the late hour at which the Derby and Oaks were appointed to be run ; the evil, which was generally complained of, can be easily avoided in future without interfering with the privileges of the booth-keepers. It is a remarkable fact that all the favourites for the Derby after the crack were got by Partisan. Three of them, Gla diator, Venison, and Alfred, ran second, third, and fourth; and it is supposed that had Gladiator been allowed a fair start he would have won the Derby. The winner of the Oaks is also a Partisan. We understand that Mr,. Tattersall has pur chased Glaucus, and is covering at Dawley Farm. The whole of his last year's stock, 26 in number, was purchased by Mr. Bond. They arc the most promising lot in Newmarket. The settling day for Epsom is Tuesday next. The Good wood .Stakes and Cup close on the same day. The melancholy death of the Hon. Berkeley Craven has produced the moat poignant regret in the fashionable and sporting circles. _ It is of remark that both the Derby and Oaks were won by the first favourite--a circumstance almost without parallel. The owner of the winner of the Derby is said to have backed his own horse to a considerable amount. Aud every disinte rested man on the turf, or who takes an interest in its exciting recreations, rejoices in the result of the race. A disturbance took place late on Thursday evening on Ep som Downs, which was productive of serious consequ-nces. It appears that two rival gangs of gipsies had quarrelled and bad got to blows ; a cry of " Murder" was raised ; and a po liceman. named Girdler, ran to the spot; he was immediately struck down, stabbed in the arm, and his head cut open. A second, named Wright, proceeded to his relief, and was stab bed in two or three places ; nor was it till several other police men arril ed that their companions were rescued and the gipsies secured. A subscription has been opened for Girdler and Wright, who arc dangerously wounded. , BEVERLEY MEETING, WEDNESDAY. The Beverley Stakes of 10 sovs. each, with 20 added. Mile and,half.

The site is ad•nirable in a sporting point of view, the country about is full o f cover, game, and preserves, and, as Count Sandor observed, 'it equals Leicestershire. To Stratford-upon- Avon and its spirited in habitants this change is due. The conclusion of the Westmorland and Cumberland wrest ling match will take place on Tuesday next, at Ch i & Farm. All the heavy weights have to contend. ENGLISH PRIZE FIGHT AT MARSEILLES.—The Atessager de Marseille, of the 12th inst., states that the Rue St. Francoise of that town served on that eve as .an arena for tvvo English boxers from Bristol. Great was the affluence o spectators, and the two combatants displayed to the astonished crowd all the mysteries of the " science du boxement." One of them was carried to the hospital in consequence of this athletic display, and the police sent to prison two other representr.tives of John - Bull, who ha d assisted at the s p ecta cle , and who will now have an opportunity of reflecting upon the danger of not knowing the laws of the country one comes to visit.
